Church medical enterprise was a special part of Christianity mission in China, and it had special relations to Qing government. Qing government's attitude and policy toward church experienced several changes. Under the prohibition of church policy Qing government was tolerant to church's medical enterprise. In the times between the two Opium Wars, Qing government was forced to accept church medical enterprise under the pressure of unequal treaties, but still had the idea of declining it. In the aftermath of the Second Opium War treaty based institutions had been established, at the same time, a change occurred in Qing government's attitude toward foreign culture. Thereafter although some changes happened, the basic attitude and policy of Qing government toward church's medical enterprise were protection, support and utilization, and took on some degree of distinctiveness in some aspects.
